Thanks for the reply.

My understanding is that it does not matter much, right? Would it be OK to
change this line [1] and pass in the address variable instead of the
senderId?

I tried locally: it does not break the test suite and fixes the link
pairing issue.

This is trivial, I can submit a PR.

Thanks.
